Category 4 and to sit there for days is unimaginable. Coupled with a 16'+ storm surge (water above ground level) plus up to 30+ inches of rain man unfathomable. And I've been through my fair share.

Is that for your area?

 

[sdm111]

Oh no no thank God I wouldn't be here. I'd be in Kentucky by my sister. That's my evacuation location I'll stay till about a 3 then I'm out

 

[SOHC-FTW]

Well there goes the fall fishing for redfish on the Tx coast. Hope everyone stays safe and damage is minimal.

We had some really bad storms on a sunday/Monday and Hurricane Irene hit here on Tuesday. 21" inches of rain in 3 days. I was sweating bullets waiting for my house to flood. Came right up to the back door but nothing in the house. Thankfully. Think my days were off but in 3 days that was a lot of rain. Chickens were swimming.

Yeah. I keep looking and can't find em. They're old. Just had em packed away. Oh well.

They remind me of tips I saw the dudes with all the tech on their bows had when there used to be an indoor range in town... gosh that was the 1990s I think. I wish I could help but that was a long time ago... I am thinking of blowing the dust off my longbow, miss shooting it. I really miss that indoor range. It was so fun wandering in there with my wood shaft arrows, with my archaic bow, being told by all the dudes my bow was useless and then sinking all bulls eyes... now I probably can't hit the barn door. Actually have been kicking around the idea of getting a modern bow. I tried finding wood shaft practice arrows last year it was a no go... so I bought some modern ones, I have yet try them out though, been too busy.

Resistance is coming from adults in charge.

Typical. I would point out Ignorance creates Fear, and denying the children the opportunity to learn about living animals that can very safely be handled is promoting both Ignorance and Fear, and when people out of Ignorance mishandle or misreact to animals that is when humans make unnecessary dangerous situations.

My kids were raised learning about animals despite,living in suburbia... and that is why when their school went to the park to catch water bugs, mine came back with snakes, cray fish, bull frogs, tree frogs and lizards instead... much to their elementary teacher's horror. They did not get hurt, the critters did not get hurt... because they had been educated at home on how to identify critters and safely handle them. The teachers where however upset that my kids turned their curtsy bug collecting trip into the elementary suburban school version of Crocodile Hunter.
